Trevor Wooley

Trevor Wooley is the Andris A. Zoltners Distinguished Professor of Mathematics at Purdue University's Department of Mathematics, part of the College of Science. His research focuses on Analytic Number Theory, Harmonic Analysis, Automorphic Forms, Lie Groups, Number Theory, and Representation Theory. He has contributed significantly to areas like Waring's problem, Vinogradov systems, and Diophantine equations through advanced analytic methods.

Wooley's work bridges classical number theory with modern harmonic analysis, addressing questions in additive number theory, exponential sums, and rational solutions to algebraic equations. His recent publications explore topics such as polynomial irreducibility over finite fields, paucity problems in Diophantine systems, and subconvexity bounds via the circle method.

His research has implications for cryptography, algebraic geometry, and theoretical computer science. Despite his extensive contributions, no specific academic awards are mentioned in the provided text. He advises no students listed here, and no grants or labs are explicitly noted.
